I don't know. Does a vegetarian or vegan have the right to criticise meat-eaters, even though they might have done the same, even if is was many years before?

Sydney wanted the thread – y'know, this one, that they have contributed a good few posts to – removed: 'please bin this thread ....f***ing cringeworthy , rainbow planes , unfunny comedians and all the virtuous bollox its stirred up are embarrassing to say the least ....ffs' Not only that, but...

Didn't Joe say that he fully expected Beckham (and his people) to completely ignore his request? So, in that respect, it was all planned. But, as predicted by many, the talk of Qatar has firmly shifted from fatalities to football since the whole thing began. A good time for JL to bring it all...
